OverviewThe DAP-2695 AirPremier AC1750 Concurrent Dual Band PoE Access Point is
designed to support small to medium business or enterprise environments by
providing network administrators with secure and manageable dual-band wireless
LAN options, and utilizing the cutting-edge speed of IEEE 802.11ac wireless
technology.

Super-fast Wireless AC Performance
The DAP-2695 delivers reliable, high-speed wireless performance using the latest
802.11ac standards with maximum wireless signal rates of up to 450 Mbps over the
2.4 GHz band, and 1300 Mbps over the 5 GHz band1. This, coupled with support for
the Wi-Fi Multimedia™ (WMM) Quality of Service (QoS) feature, makes it an ideal
access point for audio, video, and voice applications. When enabled, QoS allows
the DAP-2695 to automatically prioritize network traffic according to the level
of interactive streaming, such as Voice over IP (VoIP). The QoS feature can be
adjusted through the DAP- 2695’s web GUI using a drop-down menu option to select
customized priority rules. Additionally, the DAP-2695 supports load balancing to
ensure maximum performance by limiting the maximum number of users per access
point.

Versatile Access Point Functionality
The DAP-2695 allows network administrators to deploy a highly manageable and
extremely robust simultaneous dual-band wireless network. All six antennas on
the DAP-2695 are detachable and can provide optimal wireless coverage over
either the 2.4 GHz (802.11g, and 802.11n) or the 5 GHz (802.11a, 802.11n, and
802.11ac) band. Enclosed in a plenum-rated metal chassis, the DAP-2695 adheres
to strict fire codes for placement in air passageways. For advanced
installations, the DAP-2695 has integrated 802.3at Power over Ethernet (PoE)
support, allowing this device to be installed in areas where power outlets are
not readily available.

Security
To help maintain a secure wireless network, the DAP-2695 supports both Personal
and Enterprise versions of WPA and WPA2 (802.11i), with support for RADIUS
server backend and a built-in internal RADIUS server allowing users to create
their accounts within the device itself. This access point also includes MAC
address filtering, wireless LAN segmentation, SSID broadcast disable, rogue AP
detection, and wireless broadcast scheduling to further protect your wireless
network. The DAP-2695 includes support for up to eight VLANs per band for
implementing multiple SSIDs to further help segment users on the network. It
also includes a wireless client isolation mechanism, which limits direct client-to-client
communication. Additionally, the DAP-2695 supports Network Access Protection (NAP),
a feature of Windows Server® 2008, allowing network administrators to define
multiple levels of network access based on individual client’s need.

Multiple Operation Modes
To maximize total return on investment, the DAP-2695 can be configured to
optimize network performance based on any one of its multiple operation modes:
Access Point, Wireless Distribution System (WDS) with Access Point, WDS/Bridge
(No AP Broadcasting), and Wireless Client. With WDS support, network
administrators can set up multiple DAP-2695s throughout a facility and configure
them to bridge with one another while also providing network access to
individual clients. The DAP-2695 also features advanced features such as load
balancing and redundancy, for fail-safe wireless connectivity.

Network Management
Network administrators have multiple options for managing the DAP-2695,
including web (HTTP), Secure Socket Layer (SSL, which provides for a secure
connection to the Internet), Secure Shell (SSH, which provides for a secure
channel between local and remote computers), and Telnet. For advanced network
management, administrators can use the D-Link AP Manager II, or D-View SNMP
management module to configure and manage multiple access points from a single
location. In addition, the AP Manager II and D-View software provide network
administrators with the means of conducting regular maintenance checks remotely,
eliminating the need for sending out personnel to physically verify proper
operation. Also available is an AP array, allowing the management of a set of
network devices as a single group for easy configuration and deployment. In
addition, the DAP-2695 has a wireless scheduler feature, which turns off
wireless functionality when it isn’t needed, saving power. With simultaneous
dualband functionality, PoE support, extensive manageability, versatile
operation modes, and solid security enhancements, the DAP-2695 provides small to
medium business and enterprise environments with a business-class solution for
deploying a wireless network.
